Green light bro.

[PineyWoodsJunky]

I think yall are rite. Now I just need to get him in the crosshairs, or pins

If you're willing to let him walk over 3" of antler you didn't want to shoot him very badly in the first place. Let the air out of him!

Ziiiiiiiiiip and fix...

Hey, I got a brilliant idea. How about I hunt your stand and shoot him then we'll see how you feel about someone else shooting him. That will tell you if you should of shot him or not. hahahahaha. Sorry couldn't resist.

I want the deer, but in the same breath I am hunting the deer for the rack, I can kill does for meat so the 3 in point missing does kinda make me have second thoughts about taking him. But most likely if he shows he dies.

3" is nothing if he's down 10" next year or dies some other way..

Screw the inches, that's a great deer bust him. The broken brow just adds character, or if you choose you can get it fixed.

[Split Arrow]

Shoot him! Any good taxi can repair that broken tine.

Exactly! Or you can leave hi, as is and not worry about the 3" lost... he's a beautiful animal!! Good luck!!

He isn't easier to hunt because he is broke off

What do you mean?

[8pointer]

I would shoot

[zr2chevy22]

What do you mean?

He's referring to the thrill of the hunt/stalk on a big buck. It doesn't change because of a broken brow tine.

[BIG IRON]

What do you mean?

The skill it takes to get deer doesn't diminish with a broken antler. He will be just as hard to kill.
